That video seems to be a trailer for a film. The time bar seems to
suggest that it is only two seconds long but it is obviously more
than
that. I can't seem to scroll through it on my system to find out if
anything comes later. Guardian got things screwed up again?

That's the ad paying for the website. The article comes later (30 secs
or so).

If they really think I am going to wait for 30 secs or so just to watch
one of their videos they have another thought coming.

I did not see any ads, which suggests that AdBlock had them away...

I'm running AdBlock. I got the impression from what Clive wrote that the
video was the Ad. With the bit you wanted to watch tacked on the end.

I saw a zooming title "guardian" for three or four secinds (I guess) -
then straight into the story. I would never knowingly post a link that
required you to sit through half a minute or more, at least not without
informing you.

Apologies!

Odd. So they are serving different videos to different visitors. I
wonder what decides who gets what? Do they show an add for your first
video then none for the rest of the other way around so as not to ****
you off at the start. Maybe needs some experimenting with cookies.
